Is Your Practice Really Your Retirement Plan? (Ep. 8)

Many podiatrists assume their practice will carry them into retirement, until they realize too late that intention matters. This episode challenges common assumptions and reframes retirement planning as a way to create options, not pressure.

In this episode of The Entrepreneurial Podiatrist, hosts Dr. Andrew Schneider and Greg Hardy, CFP®, AEP®, unpack what retirement planning really looks like for independent podiatry practice owners. Together, they explore why waiting too long can limit flexibility, how overvaluing a practice can derail long-term plans, and what it actually takes to build financial confidence without losing focus on growth today.
